At about 5 p.m. on April 26, two 11- year-old boys were comparing their pel- let guns when one accidentally discharged and struck a third boy. The victim wasn’t injured, meaning no skin was broken, but as a result, a verbal fight took place between the two with the guns. One of the 11-year-olds pointed his pel- let gun at the other and fired twice, hitting him below his left eye and ear, police say. This second victim’s skin wasn’t broken either but “he ended up with a red mark and a welt,” said police spokeswoman Ser- geant Nancy van Rooy. Police say the suspect then stole the sec- ond victim’s dirt bike and rode away from the scene before police arrived. He was later picked up by police while riding the stolen dirt bike in the neighbourhood. Imitation firearms such as pellet guns are illegal when used for the purpose of a crime since they’re often used in major criminal offences such as bank robberies, said Sgt. van Rooy. The suspect, however, is too young to be charged under the Crim- inal Code of Canada. Police instead cautioned the 11-year-old south Pickering resident and returned him to his parents. Police also returned the dirt bike to its owner, and confiscated both pellet guns. “They were handed over voluntarily and they’ve been destroyed,” Sgt. van Rooy said, adding all parties were cooperative. Sgt. van Rooy still calls the incident a concern. “It’s disturbing that there is that element of potential violence there,” she said.

Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty was in Oshawa Tuesday, touring GM and comment- ing on the regeneration of the auto industry over the past year. But, on a few occasions, he was taken off-message by reporters asking about the Province’s flip-flop on the sex edu- cation issue. Last week, Premier McGuinty announced the new curriculum, developed over the last two years and posted quietly earlier this year to a Provincial website, was a fait accom- pli, and would be introduced in all Ontario schools in the fall. The matter only came to the fore after Ajax’s Charles McVety, president of Canada Christian College, raised the issue, decrying the new curriculum as being overly- explicit. What followed was backlash and out- rage from a number of corners. Within hours, the curriculum had been abandoned, with the government saying it would go back to the drawing board on that portion of the curriculum change. Tuesday, the premier indicated the sexual education portion represents only one por- tion of a 12-part new physical and health edu- cation curriculum. The rest is ready to go for September, he said. “There are 11 other areas that don’t appear to be controversial,” Premier McGuinty said. He would not say when the sex ed portion would be re-designed and ready to go. Educa- tion Minister Leona Dombrowsky indicated earlier this week that to have the sex educa- tion portion revamped by September would be a “very ambitious timeframe.” It’s worth the time to have a re-think on the matter, Premier McGuinty said, noting the sensitivity of the issue. “Sex education is something that is very important to get right,” he said. That didn’t necessarily happen in this case, said the premier, admitting the problem was partially to do with the curriculum itself, and partially due to with communication of the changes to stakeholders. “Every once in a while, the process ... comes up a little short,” Premier McGuinty said. -- With files from Torstar new services DURHAM VISIT Government needs to get sex ed right: premier Sex education is something that is very important to get right.

PICKERING, ON L1V 1C3 Call us at (905) 831-0034 for Career Session dates Councillors approve bylaw; appeal period to start soon BY KEITH GILLIGAN kgilligan@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- The fight to have a question on municipal ballots on the possible election of the regional chairman has cleared anoth- er hurdle. By a 17-6 vote late last week, Regional councillors approved a bylaw required for the question to be put on ballots across Durham in October. With the bylaw passed, the next step is for Regional clerk Pat Madill to ‘give notice’, which is done by placing advertisements in local newspapers. She also has to inform the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Hous- ing of the bylaw being passed. That starts the clock on a 20-day period for anyone wanting to file an appeal of the bylaw. An appeal would be to the chief elec- toral officer for Ontario and it has to be on the grounds the question isn’t clear, concise or neutral, and it can’t be answered in a yes or no fashion. The question approved by Regional coun- cil asks the public if they favour the direct election of the regional chairman. Addressing council on Wednesday, Clar- ington resident Louis Bertrand said, “The question is clear enough. Let it go through.” Oshawa resident Dave Smith concurred, saying, “Right off the bat, go for it. Get this question on the ballot. “Let the public debate and discussion begin. It’s a discussion that should happen outside of this chamber,” Mr. Smith said. Clarington resident Linda Gasser also supported the question on the ballot. “It’s my firm belief Durham won’t achieve its full potential until it has a chairman elected by the people and accountable to the people,” Ms. Gasser said. Even with the question on ballots, how the chairman’s position is filled wouldn’t change until the 2014 municipal election. Oshawa Councillor Brian Nicholson said, “What would change if we went to an elect- ed system? The Regional chair would have a mandate from the people of Durham for his office. Now, he gets it from 28 council- lors.” Scugog Mayor Marilyn Pearce opposed putting the question on the ballot, say- ing it should be up to each municipality to decide. She added the matter is a provincial issue. “They should look at it for all regions,” she said. “It’s a misleading question. It’s mis- leading because it’s a lower-tier responsi- bility. I don’t believe lower tiers should be forced to put it on the ballot.” REGION Durham referendum question moving along CAROLA VYHNAK newsroom@durhamregion.com AJAX -- Babies’ bums and sticky fingers might appreciate a swipe from a wet wipe, but the disposable towelettes aren’t wel- come in the toilets of Durham. They’re causing costly blockages and breakdowns in the Region’s sanitary sewer system because they don’t break down, says the works department, which is asking residents to stop flushing them. In the Ajax pumping station, $10,000 pumps that would normally last three or four years were being replaced every cou- ple of months because of damage caused by the wipes, says Jim Cunningham, super- visor for technical support. Even though the wipes might be called “flushable,” they’re not because the thread that runs through the material prevents them from biodegrading, he explains. So they get snagged and accumulate in the pipes, causing blockages. The ones that make it to the pumping stations get lodged in the pumps, causing equipment failure, backups, residential flooding and opera- tional problems. Crews are currently repairing pumps in Oshawa and Whitby. After pamphlets asking people to stop flushing the wipes were distributed in the neighbourhood that was the source of problems in Ajax, the problem stopped, Mr. Cunningham says. Only human waste and toilet paper should be flushed into the system, he adds. -- Carola Vyhnak is a reporter for the Toronto Star REGION WORKS Tiny towels clog Durham’s sewers du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ap r i l 2 9 , 2 0 1 0 5 P If you want a rewarding career, start with one of our high quality programs taught by exceptional teachers with industry experience.

Pickering residents oppose ‘confusing’ referendum question BY KRISTEN CALIS kcalis@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- Council has changed its mind regarding an election ballot refer- endum on the proposed Pickering air- port, much to the delight of residents. In the early 1970s the federal govern- ment expropriated north Pickering land for an airport, but to this day, a final decision hasn’t been made. Pickering council has stood opposed to the possi- bility over the years. In October, council voted to begin the process of putting the following ques- tion on the 2010 municipal election bal- lot: “Do you support the City of Picker- ing’s position to oppose construction and operation of an airport in the City of Pickering? Yes or No?” In February, council approved the question, and an appeal period was set until March 23. Members of Land Over Landings, an anti-airport group in favour of farming the lands, decided to appeal council’s decision. Mary Delaney of LOL felt the question was confusing, saying it could yield inac- curate results. “It ain’t broke, so please don’t try to fix it,” she told council Monday. “This is one can of worms you don’t want to open.” City clerk Debbie Shields explained the question had to be worded in such a way since the federal lands are not under municipal jurisdiction. The ques- tion could not ask if residents are for or against an airport, but it could ask if they support council’s opposition. Ms. Delaney explained the matter is long and complicated. “We elect our pol- iticians to work with experts, be they existing staff or consultants, to make the best decisions for us,” she said. “Ballots don’t ask the masses of the pub- lic to give their “yay” or “nay” on foot- bridges over the 401, on odour facility plants, or on the budget. Why would we throw this question, which is arguably even more complicated, out to the pub- lic?” Pickering resident and LOL member Peter Rodrigues said since there is no sensible business case, and local oppo- sition to an airport has been obvious, the question should be withdrawn. “Personally, I think it’s quite pointless to raise a question as to which we clearly know the answer,” he said. Ward 3 Regional Councillor Rick John- son said since the question is confusing, the answer will only be convoluted, and no real legitimate results will come of it any- way. “You’re going to get a convoluted-type response,” he said. “It’s not going to be easy to weigh that, and where do you go from there?” Ward 1 Regional Councillor Bonnie Lit- tley brought forward a motion to repeal the ballot question “because the public does not feel the questions is clear.” Council approved the repeal, and the clerk will notify the chief electoral offi- cer for Ontario. CITY HALL Council deletes Pickering airport question from ballot This is one can of worms you don’t want to open. Mary Delaney, Land Over Landings METROLAND FILE PHOTO PICKERING -- Mary Delaney of the Land over Landings group noted that since the ballot question regarding a proposed airport in Pickering was confusing, council’s scrapping of the referendum on the issue was the way to proceed. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ap r i l 2 9 , 2 0 1 0 6 P & A Metroland Media Group Ltd.

All content copyright WE THINK... email responses to newsroom@durhamregion.com Editorial Opinions PENSIONS Government should act for Canadians, not financial institutions To the editor: Comments recently about the unfairness to young Canadians in restructuring of the CPP is unfounded. In fact, younger workers stand to gain the most through the plan to improve pen- sions and retirement income. They would contribute more to the CPP for longer in their career, and therefore earn a richer CPP pension. What this means is that today’s young workers could count on a CPP pension that would be portable across jobs, insured against inflation and protected against market slumps. Federal pension insurance would ensure young workers get the pension they’ve earned. Most importantly, young Canadians could access jobs freed up because older workers, thanks to improved retirement income security, would not need to pro- long retirement plans, as is the case today. Labour’s plan to reform Canada’s retire- ment income system will make a real dif- ference for younger workers who have been urged to “fend for themselves” by bankers and life insurance companies seeking to extract decades of fees from RRSP invest- ment in mutual funds. Financial institutions should not be given 10 years to show what they can do. Our government needs to act swiftly for the interest of Canadians not in the interest of financial institutions. John MacDonald Oshawa COMMUNITY Local volunteers make a huge difference in Durham neighbourhoods To the editor: Every year during National Volunteer Week, we have a golden opportunity to show our appreciation to volunteers for their service and commitment. As chair of the grant review team in Dur- ham, Haliburton, Kawartha and Pine Ridge for the Ontario Trillium Foundation, one of Canada’s leading grant-making founda- tions, I would like to recognize the remark- able dedication of the local review team with whom I have the honour of serving. I applaud their outstanding commitment to improving life in our community. Volun- teer time is unpaid time, and that makes it especially valuable. Last year in the Durham, Haliburton, Kawartha and Pine Ridge area alone, approximately 6,000 volunteers contrib- uted close to 146,000 hours of their time to support organizations that received fund- ing from our foundation. If we translate their efforts into value, it comes to almost $ 2.5 million of giving. During Volunteer Week, I urge you to take a moment to thank volunteers for working at making our communities a better place to live. In these critical times, I also encour- age everyone to join the ranks of volunteers and help strengthen our community. Pramilla Ramdahani , GRT Chair, Ontario Trillium Foundation Toronto HUMOUR Cartoon was hard to follow To the editor: Re: ‘Scrabble’ cartoon by Patrick Lamon- tagne, April 9. Call me dumb or dumber, but I absolutely didn’t get the editorial car- toon. Perhaps my brain is ‘srabbled’? If this cartoon suggests an indictment of our next generation being deficient in awareness of our history, heritage and remembrance thereof, then it’s still a car- toon stretch with the cartoon tie-in. Perhaps an editor’s note was in order. Regardless, there have been far better car- toons on that page of your newspaper. Putting it in colour was even more over- kill. R.M. Hues Oshawa Graffiti about much more than words painted on concrete It’s difficult for the majority of Pickering residents not to take offence to overt acts of racism, sexism or religious prejudice. Our collective sense of community, our historic practice of embracing diversity is shaken when a cowardly few make their offensive views plain for all to see. Police in Pickering are currently investi- gating a case of vandalism in which anti- Islamic graffiti was spraypainted in red on a sidewalk across the street from the Pickering Islamic Centre. Police believe the proximity of the offensive graffiti to the Islamic centre was deliberate. The thugs responsible might see it as a harmless sign of these difficult times, but Durham Regional Police investigators are taking the matter quite seriously, as is the larger community, and rightly so. Officials with the Canadian Council on American-Islamic Relations, while acknowledging that the Pickering incident is not isolated, added it is their belief that the offensive anti-Islamic sentiments car- ried in the crass message are not held by a vast majority of Canadians. That’s true. But that vast majority can’t remain silent in the face of such divisive and offensive commentary. Just as the calls for moder- ate Islamic voices come on the heels of the latest international terrorist attack, it is imperative that voices of moderation in the larger community come out to condemn this act. If Pickering is a microcosm of Canada, an adopted home to people from all cor- ners of the Earth, it must also live up to the collective multicultural heritage that has come to define our country. There is no achievement, no victory, no future in demonizing those of another faith, whether Christian, Jew or Muslim. Here at home, we cannot afford to shake our collective heads and go about our busi- ness. Without a public effort taking issue against these thoughtless, hurtful acts, we provide succour to the perpetrators, we embolden them to do more. To paraphrase the adage, all that is necessary for the tri- umph of evil is for good people to do noth- ing. Local citizens can do something by speaking out against prejudice in all its forms. They can provide police with any tips to make these vandals accountable for their hateful actions. They can embody all that is good about being Canadian by tak- ing a stand and doing what is right. This is about more than a few offensive words painted on a sidewalk. It’s about acknowledging our differences, adapt- ing narrow views and finding ways to live together in a civil society. - Pickering News Advertiser e-mail letters to newsroom@durhamregion.com / max. 200 words / letter writers are obliged to back up their statements with verifiable facts / please include your full first and last name, city of residence & daytime phone number / letters that do not appear in print may be published @ durhamregion.com du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ap r i l 2 9 , 2 0 1 0 8 AP IN THE MATTER OF an application by The Regional Municipality of York for approval to expropriate lands and interest in lands described in Schedules “A”, “B”, “C” and “D”, hereto, in the Town of Markham in The Regional Municipality of York and in the City of Pickering in The Regional Municipality of Durham, for the purposes of constructing the Southeast Collector Sewer, and its ancillary infrastructure, from Box Grove in the Town of Markham to Valley Farm Road in the City of Pickering.

The event on May 2 runs from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. and is being held at the Civic Dome, on Thornton Road south of Hwy. 2, in Oshawa. One of the features is the opportunity to undergo ‘sensitivity training’, to learn what it’s like to be hearing impaired. Participants will do a number of activities that will illustrate the communication challenges and barriers faced every day by deaf individuals, as well as learning to communicate by using American Sign Language. The sensitivity training is open to everyone, offering a fun and interactive approach to deaf awareness and culture. Other activities include a five-kilometre walk/run, a children’s obstacle course, silent auction, face painting, booth displays, colour- ing stations and a kids’ play area. The DDS notes one in four Canadians report having some degree of hearing loss. The ser- vice provides communication, integration, ASL teaching and education programs for deaf children, adults and senior citizens.

Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered teens can party in Oshawa ASHLEY BAIN newsroom@durhamregion.com OSHAWA -- Youths all over Durham Region are getting ready to celebrate at prom, and no one is being left out because of sexual orien- tation. Local lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgen- dered youth are once again invited to cel- ebrate at the second annual Durham Pride Prom. “It gives them a chance to just be them- selves, meet other LGBT youth in the Dur- ham Region, and overall just a great night.” says Julie Chartier, of the Eastview Boys and Girls Club, one of several community organi- zations hosting the event. With a successful first year under their belt, the Durham Pride Prom organizers hope to beat numbers from last year, which saw 80 youths at the party. The prom, which has had only positive reviews from the commu- nity, according to Ms. Chartier, is a chance for these teens to be in a space where they are safe to be true to who they are, and not be judged for it. The event is hosted by various community partners including Durham Regional Police, the AIDS Committee of Durham Region, PFLAG Canada-Durham, the Ontario Sec- ondary School Teachers’ Federation District 13, the Town of Ajax and more. The end-of- year celebration allows LGBT youth in Dur- ham Region, ages 16 to 21, to dress up and have a good time with friends. The Oshawa Golf and Curling Club, 160 Alexandra St., will be the venue for the prom May 7, which will begin at 6:30 p.m. and carry on until midnight. Pride Prom is expected to “play out just like a real high school prom,” says Ms. Chartier. Just like every high school prom, the night will start off with photos and mocktails, fol- lowed by dinner, dancing and, of course, the coveted title of prom king and queen will be up for grabs. This year’s theme will be a Fire and Ice Masquerade. Tickets are $20 per person, which includes dinner, photos, mocktails and the dance. Tickets will be on sale until April 28.

CLERKS DEPARTMENT NOTICE OF PASSING OF A BY-LAW TO SUBMIT A QUESTION TO THE ELECTORS The Regional Municipality of Durham 605 Rossland Road East, Whitby, ON L1N 6A3 • Telephone 905-668-7711 PUBLIC NOTICE TAKE NOTICE that the Council of The Regional Municipality of Durham passed By-law No. 20- 2010 on the 21st day of April, 2010 to submit the following question to the electors in all lower-tier municipalities in The Regional Municipality of Durham at the next regular municipal election to be held on October 25, 2010: Are you in favour of the Council of the Regional Municipality of Durham passing the necessary resolutions and by-laws to change the method of selecting its Chair from appointment by the members of Regional Council to election by general vote of all electors in the Region? YES NO Under the provisions of the Municipal Elections Act, 1996, as amended, referendum results will be binding on the municipality, subject to some exceptions, if at least 50 per cent of eligible electors vote on the question. If this question receives a binding “yes” result, Regional Council will undertake all measures required to give effect to changing the method of selecting the Chair of The Regional Municipality of Durham. If this question receives a binding “no” result, Regional Council will not do anything to change the method of selecting the Chair of The Regional Municipality of Durham during the 2010-2014 term of Council. The costs of implementing the results of the question would be modest if the result is in the affi rmative and are considered to be negligible if the result is in the negative. Appeal Process The Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing and any other person or entity may appeal to the Chief Electoral Offi cer of the Province of Ontario on the grounds that the question: a) is not clear, concise or neutral; and/or b) is not capable of being answered by either the “YES” or “NO” options provided. Notices of appeal must be received by the Regional Clerk no later than 5:00 p.m. on May 19, 2010. Notices of appeal are to be fi led with the Regional Clerk at the Clerk’s Department, 605 Rossland Road East, First Floor, P.O. Box 623, Whitby, Ontario L1N 6A3.

My last two pair of orthotics were fabricated from a plaster cast impression of my feet. I now see some ofﬁ ces using other impression techniques such as carbon imprints, semi weight-bearing foam box impressions and full weight-bearing computers gait analy- sis. Is there really a difference? Dear Reader: Thanks for your letter. We have not addressed orthotics yet in any of our articles. The term orthotics comes from the Greek work “ortho” which mean “straighten”. Thus, an orthotic will straighten or align a foot deformity. Orthotics are ﬁ tted to the patient’s foot and, when worn in shoes, will redistribute the patient’s weight on the foot so that their gait is more balanced and abnormal motions are con- trolled. This will allow the patient to function more comfort- ably. Orthotics are made out of many different types of materials of varying ﬂ exibility (soft, semi-soft or rigid) thicknesses and shock absorbing abilities. We as podiatrists take in to account the age and weight of the patient, the activity the orthotic is to be used for and the shoe type it is worn in. It is not uncom- mon for a patient to have two pairs of orthotics, one pair for athletic shoes and the other for fashionable shoes. The athletic orthotic is bulkier broader and more cushioned. It is better suit- ed for wearing when exercising. The thinner orthotic, usually the newer graphite material is better suited for inserting into tighter ﬁ tting dress shoes. The type of medical problems that can be eased by the use of orthotics are numerous but most occur as a result of a foot that has a weaker arch (ﬂ atter foot) causing the foot to pronate or roll into the arch. This type of motion can lead to arch pain, shin splints, planter fasciitis, knee hip and lower back pain to name a few. The impression taking technique like the foundation of a house is most important to achieving a positive orthotic result. The preferred method and the one that I use in my ofﬁ ce is to take a plaster NON WEIGHT BEARING cast of the patient’s feet. This will give the exact position before it has calloused. Avoid foam box impressions as they collapse the arch some- what and it is more difﬁ cult to achieve the neutral position. Don’t be fooled by the high tech illusion of the computerized gait analysis. This looks state-of-the-art but again the arch is collapsed on weight-bearing. No one in the health profession sees more feet than a podia- trist and therefore no one is better trained to treat them. Many other professionals as well as retailers are selling orthotics. Know to ask the right questions including what impressions technique is used. The practioner prescribing orthotics must possess the following qualities. 1. The practioner must have a detailed understanding of the fabrication, must understand how errors in the cast can affect the shape and function of the orthotic. 2. The practioner must be able to treat the patient as an en- tirety not just the feet. 3. Finally, and most importantly the practioner must un- derstand the biomechanics of the lower extremity and how to adjust or modify the orthotic after it is dispensed. Orthotics although not covered by OHIP are usually covered by most extended health care plans. Know the restrictions of your plan. Some may only pay when a plaster cast is taken. Other plans may only cover the cost of the treatment if it is provided by a podiatrist. If you are unsure about the quality of care, make some phone calls. Most podiatry ofﬁ ces will be more than helpful in explaining their ofﬁ ce policy with regards to orthotics.

The six-foot-three point guard out of Pickering has signed a let- ter of intent to play basketball next season at the University of Texas. Joseph chose the Longhorns over a group of schools that included Connecticut, UNLV, Villanova and Minnesota, where brother Devoe has played the past two seasons. With the Longhorns possibly facing the loss of two guards from this past season’s team in Avery Bradley, who has already commit- ted to the NBA draft, and Jordan Hamilton, who is still attempting to come to a decision regarding his future, Joseph saw the opportunity to enter the program and make an instant impact. “My goal is to go in there and hopefully be an impact player,” Joseph told ESPN. “I want to play hard and I hope things will work out for me. I want to get better every day ... and be fully committed to the team and basketball.” Joseph also told ESPN that he felt of the five schools that showed the most interest, Texas and their style of play best suited what he brings to the table. “I had a great relationship with coach (Rick) Barnes and all the staff and players,” Joseph said. “I feel that it’s the best fit for me over- all.” At Texas, Joseph will team up once more with Findlay Prep teammate Tristan Thompson, who previously committed to the Longhorns. After winning a pair of OFSSA titles with the Pickering High School Trojans, Joseph left home for Findlay two years ago, where he and Brampton’s Thompson won a pair of ESPN Rise national championships. Barnes, meanwhile, is excited to have added Joseph to the fold for 2010-11. “Cory is simply a winner who will definitely have an impact on our backcourt,” Barnes told the Long- horns’ website. “Not only is Cory a very good basketball player, he is an excellent person with a truly wonderful family. Cory comes from a successful Grass Roots Canada AAU program coached by Ro Russell. Cory also has played for an excellent high school pro- gram at Findlay Prep, coached by Michael Peck. Both of those are winning programs who have excelled at the highest levels.” Attempts by the News Advertiser to reach Joseph were unsuccess- ful. BASKETBALL Pickering’s Joseph makes commitment to Texas Former Pine Ridge student will play Division I basketball BY SHAWN CAYLEY scayley@durhamregion.com FORT DODGE, IOWA -- Kurt Alexander’s two-year stint at Iowa Central Community Col- lege has paid dividends. The six-foot-two guard, and former Pine Ridge Secondary School product, recently signed on with Drake University and will play on the Division I NCAA school’s men’s basketball team. For Alexander, the signing marks the conclusion of one chapter in his basketball journey and the start of another. “It was definitely on my mind,” he said of playing NCAA basket- ball after signing at Iowa Central, a junior college, two years ago. “I want to go to the next level. I want to play at the best level I can ... That was the biggest thing I wanted to do.” Alexander, who averaged almost 19 points a game for the Triton this past season, had inter- est from several schools before inking with Drake. Those inter- ested included Washington State, Creighton, Illinois and North BASKETBALL Alexander signs scholarship at Drake PHOTO SUPPLIED BY IOWA CENTRAL ATHLETICS FORT DODGE, IOWA -- Pickering’s Kurt Alexander played the last two years at Iowa Central Community College and recently signed on to play basketball at Drake University this fall. I want to go to the next level. I want to play at the best level I can. Kurt Alexander Dakota State. Not bad for a kid, who out of high school, generated very little interest from recruiters. So at the time, Pine Ridge coach Jason McKenzie sent out DVD’s of Alexander in hopes of piqu- ing the interest of schools, but it wasn’t until Triton coach Den- nis Pilcher saw the video package that something materialized for Alexander. And that’s all it took. Pilcher was intrigued by Alexan- der’s raw ability and talent level, but knew the youngster needed some work. Seeing the potential, Pilcher had Alexander signed to play for the Triton before he even made a visit to the campus. “Kurt came here as an unknown product. When he came here, he was a talented player, but he real- ly had to work on his skills,” said Pilcher, who has spent 31 years coaching at IC. “His perimeter shooting, his overall ball han- dling, his passing, his defence. He has worked hard on that and shown all kinds of improve- ment.” Alexander, meanwhile, in addi- tion to crediting McKenzie for going the extra mile in finding him a place to play, was full of praise for Pilcher and his staff when asked to describe the big- gest reason behind his recent success. “The coaches, man. The coach- es believe in me. They put the ball in my hands and let me do what I have to do to make plays and score the basketball,” said Alexander, who was named a first team NJCAA Division II All- American this season. “That and my teammates. They have faith in me. That’s what drove me to be successful.” After watching Alexander trans- form his game from pure scor- er to all-around player, Pilcher believes the best is yet to come. “It’s my feelings, and I don’t think there is any question, that his best basketball is ahead of him,” he said. “He’s really a late bloomer. He’s got a good future in basketball.” du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ap r i l 2 9 , 2 0 1 0 19 AP Thursday, April 29, 2010 Ajax & Pickering Locations Flyers in Today’s Paper If you did not receive your News Advertiser/fl yers OR you are interested in a paper route call Circulation at 905-683-5117.

Throughout the year, the team participated in tour- naments in Mitchell, Water- loo, Guelph, Pickering and Ajax, but the medal wins remained elusive. The team then qualified to compete in the 2010 provincial A tournament hosted by West Ferris, the birthplace of rin- gette. It took eight games in four days and a 2-1 win over Gloucester to capture the gold medal as Ontario’s top U12 A level team. The team was best in goals against with a 1.87 GAA. In the final game, the girls came together and played their finest performance of the year. It was a tight game going back and forth right up until the last few seconds. The players, Alex Henry, Brooke Peters, Del- aney Hughes, Emily Earle, Izabella Vergara, Jamie Fahey, Jenna Pitaro, Kris- tin Tonack, Melissa Stab- ner, Michelle Marquez and Nicole Fowler contributed as a team and their hard work paid off. The gold medal win was truly a team effort. The coaching staff includ- ed Mark Feher with assis- tant coaches Katie Painter and Brent Henry and team manager Shirley Earle.
